As soon as Pei Wenxuan left the palace, Fu Lai presented the result of the comparison of the rune and handwriting.
"Your Majesty," Fu Lai respectfully said, "the handwriting on this rune is indeed fake."
Li Ming took the talisman paper from the plate and held it in his hand to watch. Fulai waited quietly. After a long time, Li Ming sighed: "Fulai, do you know what is the hardest thing about being a king?"
"Your Majesty's question," Fu Lai laughed, "How does this servant understand this?"
Li Ming looked at the talisman paper, and after a long time, he threw the talisman paper on the table and stood up: "That is, everyone around you may lie to you. If others want to hear the truth, they will listen to the truth, I want to hear it. To tell the truth, you have to find the truth from a pile of lies. And the most terrifying thing is that everyone knows about it.”
Li Ming walked out of the imperial study, Fulai followed behind him, the two walked slowly on the corridor, Li Ming said slowly: "They master your weaknesses and control your emotions, you think you can find the truth, in fact those The so-called truths are all lies that they use to cover up the truth and the fake."
"Look at this talisman, from forcibly promoting Pei Wenxuan to the minister of the Ministry of Staff, to Hongde saying that Pingle had a personal relationship with the prince, this is to pierce my heart, knowing what I am worried about, they will show me what they see, this talisman I didn't even notice such an obvious flaw, why did you have something to do with Pei Wenxuan when you clearly talked about the Prince's peace and happiness?"
"Your Majesty, Shengming, can always make a decision." Fulai flattered, and Li Ming sneered, "Shengming? Where am I? There is something wrong with this talisman, is there any problem with Pei Wenxuan? Who knows what he said, and then Is it true or false?"
Li Ming said, he stopped and looked at the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
It's March, and the weather has begun to warm up, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard are blooming with vitality. He felt a little tired and couldn't help but say, "Fulai, do you think who of them is telling the truth?"
"Your Majesty is embarrassing the old slave."
"Let's talk," Li Mingman said casually, "it's just small talk, it doesn't matter if you say it wrong."
"The slave thinks... In fact, in this world, no matter what happens, it is always the same." Fu Lai seemed to be thinking word by word, "People will never waste the efforts of the boss for nothing, you see, this pile of things One by one, if the concubine Rou was telling the truth, Master Pei took the initiative to rob the minister and the princess to let Master Hongde postpone the prince's marriage and admit her marriage with Master Pei. What is this picture? Mr. Pei is telling the truth, the Minister of Officials is plotting against him and His Highness, and then Master Hongde framed him and His Highness, and someone else used a talisman to describe His Majesty and them, so what are the people behind this plotting?"
Li Ming didn't say anything after listening to Fulai's words.
He repeatedly thought about everyone's intentions, and after a while, he felt a little headache, raised his hand involuntarily, and rubbed his forehead: "Forget it, I don't want to."
"It's windy outside, Your Majesty should go back to rest." Fu Lai stepped forward and supported Li Ming. Li Ming was supported by him. As he walked back, he said helplessly: "I am old, and my body and bones are dying. "
"Your Majesty is just a little tired."
Fu Lai said slowly: "Take a rest and you will be fine. The servant will let the imperial doctor come over and take care of it. You don't have to worry about it."
"Well." Li Ming was supported by Fulai and walked into the house. Fu gave him a look and said slowly, "Your Majesty, the matter of the reconciliation of Your Majesty and His Highness Pingle, do you want to draft a decree now?"
Listening to Fulai's words, Li Ming had a severe headache.
"Let it go." He waved his hand.
Fulai helped Li Ming to lie down on the bed, and whispered, "Do I need to investigate the matter of Master Hongde's entry into the palace?"
Li Ming didn't speak, but Fu Lai stretched out his hand to rub his head for Li Ming, and slowed down his tone: "Concubine Rou has a gentle temperament, she used to follow His Majesty's orders, but now she takes the initiative to bring Master Hongde into the palace, she is afraid behind her back. There are villains provoking, the minions are worried..."
"Go check it out."
Li Ming didn't want to hear this, but he also knew that this matter couldn't be delayed. If it was delayed for a moment, it would be more difficult to figure it out.
He waved his hand and turned around: "Call the imperial physician over to give me acupuncture."
Fu Lai responded and made a look at the little eunuch next to him, and the little eunuch walked out.
When Li Ming had a headache, people in the palace turned around. At this time, Pei Wenxuan almost returned to the princess' mansion and asked where Li Rong was, only to find out that she was sleeping.
After tossing for a night last night, she was probably tired. Pei Wenxuan thought about it and asked people to go to the study after the people in the inner courtyard were cleared.
After entering the inner courtyard, he went directly back to the bedroom, and Tong Ye couldn't help but be a little curious: "Isn't the son going to the study?"
Pei Wenxuan glanced at him with the eyes of a fool: "There are many people in the outer court, and I am still having a conflict with His Highness. Don't let people know that I am going to see His Highness."
Tong Ye couldn't react, but Pei Wenxuan chased him away: "Go to the door of the study to guard, whoever comes will say that I am in the study."
Tong Ye nodded blankly, then watched Pei Wenxuan enter the bedroom and closed the door. He paused for a moment, then remembered what he should do, and turned to guard the door of the study.
Li Rong was so tired last night that she was so sleepy that she was lying on the bed and fell asleep. Pei Wenxuan didn't know when she came in.
Pei Wenxuan closed the door gently, took off his official uniform, and washed his hands under the control of the sound of water.
Li Rong heard the sound of water and finally opened her eyes. She saw the back of a young man vaguely. She called out vaguely, "Wen Xuan?"
That sound was like a murmur, and Pei Wenxuan suddenly remembered last night.
He put his hands in the water, closed his eyes and slowed down for a moment, and at the same time replied: "You go to sleep first, I'm back."
Li Rong was still a little sleepy, but she remembered things in the palace, so she simply lay on the bed, with one hand hanging by the bed, and asked vaguely with her eyes closed, "What do you say about the father and the emperor?"
Pei Wenxuan washed her hands and came to her side. Without opening her eyes, Li Rong felt that she was being picked up and moved in by him. Pei Wenxuan lifted the quilt and went in. Li Rong's hand hooked over as soon as she entered. , hanging on his neck, leaning against his chest like a cat, muttering: "Does he want us to leave?"
"I didn't say," Pei Wenxuan's arms were warm and fragrant nephrite, which made him unable to put it down, and a little tormented. His eyes fell on the wall, and he followed Li Rong's back aimlessly, as if to comfort a child, and said slowly, "I brought it up on my own initiative, I will sue you."
After speaking, Pei Wenxuan laughed, he lowered his head and rubbed Li Rong's nose with the tip of his nose: "I have a kitten scratching me and biting me, I don't want this cat anymore."
Li Rong listened to his words and was amused by him to laugh: "Okay, okay, I apologize to you, but didn't you tie me up too?"
Pei Wenxuan smiled without saying a word, and Li Rong stayed in his arms for a moment before thinking of the follow-up: "And then?"
"Then I sued Concubine Rou, saying that she lied to you with a talisman and reminded His Majesty that he might be used. Then His Majesty said that he would order us to reconcile, and I came back."
"You sued Concubine Rou?" Li Rong laughed. "My father has always favored her, so I'm afraid it won't help much."
"If you only say that Concubine Rou framed you, of course it won't do much. You are political enemies. What Your Majesty has to do is to balance and not let you do too much."
As Pei Wenxuan said, he couldn't hold it any longer, so he simply turned over and pressed on Li Rong, his hand was like playing a piano, his voice was like hitting a jade, with a little romance in his gentleness, he said slowly: "But if your majesty thinks that someone is taking advantage of the softness Concubine, if you want to attack his real purpose, then he will not tolerate it."
"His purpose?" Li Rong closed her eyes, her voice trembling.
Pei Wenxuan knew that Li Rong couldn't remember it for a while, so he reminded her: "Everything your majesty has done is only to expand his power, and his biggest opponents are actually these aristocratic clansmen. Concubine, it's for this. Now I'm the inspector, and it's also for this. Your Majesty cares about my promotion. You are colluding with the prince, or your relationship with me. In fact, we are all afraid. We are actually chess pieces of the family. But is he not afraid of Concubine Rou?"
Pei Wenxuan's breath sprayed on Li Rong's skin, and Li Rong listened to him calmly discussing political affairs, she couldn't help but tighten the sheets to keep herself as calm as possible.
This seems to be a contest between the two, depending on who wants to lose, Li Rong doesn't want to lose in such a place.
So a roaming tactfully, seems to be looking for an opportunity to always wait to attack.
And the other is strictly guarding and standing still, depending on how the other party can do everything.
"So what do you mean," Li Rong pondered, controlling her tone, "you want Your Majesty to notice that Concubine Rou's hostility towards me is being used by the noble family. Concubine Rou has become a puppet of the noble family?"
Li Rong said, and closed her eyes tightly: "I'm afraid I won't be able to sue you alone."
"It's okay," Pei Wenxuan chuckled, "When playing chess, the pieces always fall one by one."
With that said, Pei Wenxuan put his hand through her back, lifted her up in the air, and kissed her thoroughly.
This kiss was different from before, as if it finally got to the point after a long warm-up.
The sudden sense of weightlessness made Li Rong subconsciously nervous, and then mixed with all other feelings.
Pei Wenxuan bit her lips lightly, as if educating her: "Do you really think that he plotted against me in the dark, do you really think I can't plot against him?"
He didn't say who that "he" was referring to, but Li Rong could sense who the person he was referring to should be from this slightly strong gesture.
Li Rong couldn't help laughing: "You lost in your last life, are you still not convinced?"
Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan turned Li Rong over and pressed her onto the bed.
"Dare to say that?" He chuckled, "If it wasn't for you, he would have died thousands of times."
"Who doesn't speak big words?" Li Rong excited him with a smile, "Master Pei, you have to have some achievements?"
Pei Wenxuan heard this and laughed out loud. He knew she was joking, but he still took it seriously.
He squeezed her chin: "wait and see."
Seeing that he was childish, Li Rong couldn't help laughing out loud. Pei Wenxuan was a little annoyed when she heard her laughter, but he didn't show it on his face, so she couldn't laugh.
But for a moment, Li Rong really couldn't smile anymore.
After a long time, Li Rong couldn't hold back and said dumbly, "Aren't you coming yet?"
"You have two more days off."
Pei Wenxuan lowered his head and kissed her: "Otherwise it will hurt."
Li Rong didn't speak. She endured it for a while, and finally she couldn't stand it anymore. She couldn't help but hammered the bed board and shouted: "If you can't, get out!"
Pei Wenxuan's movements froze, and after a while, he took a deep breath, got up and lowered the curtain of the bed.
"Then let me check," the person in the bed tent said hoarsely, "to see if you can do it."
Li Rong: "..."
She didn't want to speak, and looked blankly at Pei Wenxuan, whose clothes were loose, knelt on the bedside and said that she would be checked carefully.
"This palace will warn you once."
She looked extremely cold: "If you tell me you can't do it, I'll kick you off and step on your face to dance a whirl dance."
Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan raised his head and smiled. After careful confirmation, he finally determined that Li Rong was almost better.
Ben also took care of him last night, and there was no injury. After getting up, he took medicine again. Now he is recovering very well.
"Madam wants to dance the Hu Xuan Dance, and said to my husband earlier, I will prepare clothes for you." Pei Wenxuan didn't put down Li Rong's skirt, he leaned over while pulling it, "You can dance anywhere you want."
"You can do it on your face, on your body, and on your heart."
